I think it's safe to say that as a member of the royal family, as the future head of state in a role which, to a large extent, is the face of the UK across the world, he is going to have a fair bit more influence than a bloke on the street. It's also a role that involves meeting with people of high standing and forging links with some of the most powerful people on the planet; his word is going to carry some strength. And when his position is public funded he must surely have some accountability to the public, I see no problem in publishing letters that he writes concerning political matters.
